Most things are excellent when fried, but I agree with chicken at the pinnacle.

Trump gave some private advice to a friend who had acknowledged some bad behavior toward women. "Real power is fear. It's all about strength. Never show weakness. You've always got to be strong. Don't be bullied. There is no choice."You've got to deny, deny, deny, and push back on these women," he said. "If you admit to anything and any culpability, then you're dead. That was a big mistake that you made. You didn't come out guns blazing and just challenge them. You showed weakness. You've got to be strong. You've got to be aggressive. You've got to push back hard. You've got to deny anything that's said about you. Never admit."

Not exactly, but in casual usage saying "fried + whatever" implies a battered and fried whatever, especially in a casual or fast food context.

A pan fried steak would be called a "pan fried steak" but a pan fried egg would simply be a "fried egg", and a pan fried pancake would be a "pancake".

it's odd, because even a fried egg is not technically fried by the Western meaning. And to further complicate the term, french fries are not battered yet would still be considered fried. It really comes down to being dipped in oil I suppose.

Doughnuts are a great fried food. And once at a fair I had a butter-battered fried snickers that was pretty good too.

Where I live we can ban fry in butter, oil are deep fry... personally I prefer pan fried as Deep fried is tasty but... its a bit saturated unless its down properly. There also Fried Turkey when done right its food of the heavens.

I saw on utube, the heart attack grill, they still fry in Lard..

I think they purposely grill in hydrogenated animal fats to make it as bad as possible actually xD .

animal fat comes hydrogenated ?

They hydrogenate so many different fats, man xD .

I thought the only purpose to hydrogenation was that it suspends better in packaged foods.

I didn't know they'd hydrogenate lards / butter for cooking.

Most animal fat IS already saturated, but some isn't. Because unsaturated fats are more prone to oxidation, they're reduced to increase their lifetime. Most fat sources are at least partially hydrogenated to prevent them from spoiling too quickly.

Seriously though, whether it's done by nature or by mankind, the result is the same .

I did actually have blueberry and strawberry pancakes with whipped cream in some Denny's or whatever it was called on the 4th of July when I was over in the States, actually. That was considered breakfast somehow xD .

Chicken fried steak is generally superior to fried chicken at restaurants. However, when considering my mom's recipes for both, I might give the edge to chicken.

In terms of vegetarian foods, chile relleno is pretty good. It has cheese in it, so it's not vegan (sorry, TP4). Oh, actually, my mom's fried eggplant is freaking amazing; it tastes almost as good as the chicken, especially when gravy is applied.

What the hell is "chicken fried steak"?! Oo

Cheap, tenderized steak fried in the same manner as one fries a chicken

It is a funny name that has caused the even funnier name of "chicken fried chicken" (the exact same thing as "fried chicken") to exist to differentiate between the two.

[Chicken fried steak] is basically a Wienerschnitzel that has gravy on it.

And... what is "gravy" in this context? From what I have seen, "gravy" is not necessarily the same in US as in Britain.

Murricans also call round scones "biscuits" despite them not being cooked a second time into a hard, dry state.

If there is something that makes me frustrated, it is when people don't adhere to proper terminology.

In this context, it is milk gravy. I've never made it myself, but my understanding it that it's basically cow milk and flour (and usually black pepper too) mixed together and cooked on a skillet. I don't know if it has drippings from the meat in it. It's similar to what comes on the American breakfast "Biscuits and gravy", except that that usually has sausage chunks in it too.

The best place to get chicken fried steak around here is a place called Nelson's. After all this talk, I may go there for lunch... Seriously, if you're ever in the south/midwest US, get some *good* chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes and gravy. Probably the best thing America has to offer. If the breading to too crunchy or salty, you got a bad one.

To confuse matters further, sometimes people refer to it simply as "Chicken fry". This term only applies to the steak and not the chicken variant even though it omits the differentiating word.

This is unsettling to me for some reason. I love me some venison, but fast food venison just seems...wrong.

I tried it and it was like eating a thick shoe that tasted gamey. This is the only time I've taken a single bite of fast food and threw it away. Some folks on Youtube were able to get it down with additional sauce and curly fries on top but I just couldn't.

Best quote I heard: "Once a year? How about no times a year!"

On the other hand the Arby's fried cajun turkey sandwich was very good and would have it again.

The Cookie Butter shake ... I loved it but my buddy didn't. They thought it tasted synthetic but I had a more romantic notion of the flavor:

Ever been to one of those small towns with lots of character during Christmas time, and in that town there is a craft store with scented candles. Candles that smell delicious and you wish you could eat it? That's what the Arby's Cookie Butter shake tastes like to me - a delicious scented candle that I always wanted to consume.

Hrrrrm.. but maybe that particular location overcooked that patty that day..

Since they don't have as much xperience with the new burgers vs their normal ones.

It's not a burger though - it's a thick filet with a very weird cut.

It might work better if it was ground up and made into patties - and with much needed extra fat - but even though Arby's might sell a Martha Stewart salad I doubt they will get into burgers.

Thanks for confirming on the venison sandwich, I just don't see how it could be done well on that scale as venison is harder to cook properly than beef and fast food employees (probably rightfully so) don't give enough of a **** to do it right.

Cookie butter shake sounds like the stuff of nightmares! Those candle stores overwhelm my senses almost immediately, so thanks for the warning on that one.

are there deer breeder/farmers?obviously we have chicken/cows/etc but you don't hear as much about more exotic animals..

There are deer farms, and apparently New Zealand is the world leader! Makes more sense that the meat for the Arby's sandwich would come from there then, but I'm still surprised that it's not local, due to the sheer amount of deer in the US.

I would guess that it is about different safety standards for farm meat and wild meat.Wild animals could have parasites and have not been processed and chilled immediately after being killed.
